The greatest attraction of this aquarium is the way it makes the most of the limited space it has in the middle of the city, on the rooftop of a building. In "Penguins in the Sky," everyone is fascinated by the Cape penguins that look as if they are flying in the sky. In the large tank of "Sunshine Lagoon," various types of fish swim around, creating a fantastic world that will make you forget the hustle and bustle of the city. Feeding time for sea lions and pelicans is also one of the highlights.
Sunshine Aquarium is not just a place to look at the aquarium tanks, but also a place where you can observe and learn about the ecology and behavior of the creatures up close. At night, you can enjoy the fantastic night aquarium with the "Night Passport". Sunshine City is also home to a shopping mall, restaurants, observation decks and other facilities, so you can have fun all day long, including at the aquarium.
During the summer holidays, it is open until 9pm.
